TRAINING:

1969-71 Postdoctoral Fellow in Immunology, National Institute for Medical Research, Mill Hill, London

Research Summary:

I began my scientific life as a cellular immunologist. I then switched to cell biology and developmental neurobiology, mainly focusing on the intrinsic and extrinsic molecular mechanisms that control the development and behaviour of myelinating glial cells and retinal cells. I retired from active science in 2002 and now spend much of my time on scientific advisory boards in the UK and USA and thinking about autism.
